Gearboxes and 2JZ-GTE's

[Connvict]

Interested particularly in transaxles... Has anyone at all heard of the use of the supra motor in a mid-engine setup? Exploring reasonable gearbox possibilities with the motor in the middle of the car...
Thanks!

question? what is your intent?

A GTE in a GTM factory five chassis... Its a mid-engine rear wheel drive car. Just curious if there was someone who has mated the 2J to a particular transaxle before........

There was a guy that did a 2jz in a DeLorean a while back. I think his thread is the other car section. Might try looking that up.

Edit: Searched for you.

Every GTM i've seen has had either a sbc or an ls in it with a porsche transaxle mated to it. I would guess if they can mate a Turbo 400 or 4lxxe up to a 2j and knowing that all gm v8's use the same bellhousing pattern i'm sure a porsche transaxle can be made to fit in there given the right minds are behind the project .

Kenedy engineering should be able to make you a conversion kit. I am unsure of what the clutch will hold though.
